Previously ancient volcano clarified Geologists have the secret to finding new rare diamond deposits. Geologists made the discovery while examining rocks from the ancient Argyle volcano in Western Australia, where the world’s largest deposits of pink and red diamonds are located.
As is known, the formation of valuable minerals deep within the Earth requires carbon and the tremendous pressure resulting from the collision of tectonic plates. According to the researchers, the third factor in the successful diamond hunt was the subsequent stretching of the earth’s crust. During this process, precious stones rise to the surface as the magma rises.
